It should be available from DS as it's currently in use with the Skull-set.
However, here's the answer to your question:

...but I suggest to get this one first:
http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30-21-8450

Interestingly, the US-Version is made in Germany (or some place in europe), while the german version is made in CHINA.  :hmm:

I heard that the material makes it easy to distinguish both...  :-\

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

The "40" numbers are very new, and appear in German sets, or instructions I've received from German owners.  I've only seen ~40 parts like it so far.  They seem to follow normal numbering conventions; in some cases, if there exists a part numbered with 30 replacing the 40, it's the same part, like the swords above, but not always.

Interesting about the quality difference!  I'd be glad to hear about any DS orders that include "40" parts, and if the quality issue is present in others as well.

The US one starts with "30 xx xxxx".
We think that in fact the "40 xx xxxx" numbers are an indicator for imported parts from china.
You know, keep the US-instructions "40 xx xxxx" number free and drive a campaign of guaranteed china-free toys... ;)

Too bad if they pay off the european sets for that...  :-\
